Bruce Momjian	0e0793a71a	Add: ... > > * Allow buffered WAL writes and fsync > > Instead of guaranteeing recovery of all committed transactions, this > would provide improved performance by delaying WAL writes and fsync > so an abrupt operating system restart might lose a few seconds of > committed transactions but still be consistent.

Bruce Momjian	f7667e4cfa	Update DELETE FROM: ... < * Allow DELETE to handle table aliases for self-joins > * Allow an alias to be provided for the target table in UPDATE/DELETE 276,279c276,282 < There is no way to create a table alias for the deleted table for use < in the DELETE WHERE clause. The agreed approach is to allow a USING < clause to specify additional tables. UPDATE already has an optional < FROM clause for this purpose. > This is not SQL-spec but many DBMSs allow it. > > * Allow additional tables to be specified in DELETE for joins > > UPDATE already allows this (UPDATE...FROM) but we need similar > functionality in DELETE.
